Confirmation of a bottom with a range violation on 01/15/13 @ 1469.25. Confirmation of a bottom with a close violation on 12/31/12 @ 1420.00. Upside Targets = 1452.00 – 1471.50 – 1505.25*.

New highs made on current move Friday @ 1399.25.

The March S&Ps formed their third consecutive VRCB week last week as the market continues to move higher despite peaking stochastic indicators and not experiencing a single ST setback since the beginning of 2013.

With psychological targets within narrow reach just above 1500, look for the S&Ps to break through that level and find heavy resistance near 1510.
